Mocking Bird lyrics - Darius

He tells you when,
He tells you why,
He tells you wherefore -
What to do and how it's done,
And how to be for him -
It's all about control,
It's all about control.
You're his life,
You're his strength,
But he's you're weakness,
He knows you care,
Knows you give,
But he couldn't care less -
He fits you to his mould,
Chipping at you soul...

[CHORUS]
It tears me up
To see the way that he treats you,
To see the way that he brings you
down and down -
He's turning you inside out,
It breaks me up
To see the way that you take it,
To see the way that he spins you
round and round
Turning you upside down...
Mocking bird,
Mocking bird...

Afraid to leave,
Afraid to lose,
Afraid of living -
You turn to him,
You turn to me,
But it lies in you -
It's waiting to be found,
It's waiting to be found,
So feel your heart,
Feel your pain,
Feel your anger,
If you fight the fear,
find the words -
You'll find the answer...
Like a cat held upside down,
You'll land feet on the ground...

[Chorus]

You never know
What life will bring -
Trust your spirit
Find your wings,
Find your voice
And let it sing
Let it sing...

[Chorus]

Mercury Rising lyrics - Darius

Eleven days,
A dozen nights,
A thousand tears...
And you are my shoulder.
From summer's haze, on morning light,
The sun is rising...
Just like I told you.

[CHORUS]
If you fall -
I'll never let your spirit break,
If you call -
I'll always soothe the cries you make,
If it's all I can do -
I'll slowly kiss your dreams awake
You're not alone for heavens sake,
Mercury Rising

From winter skies,
A cold embrace -
The shadows meet,
And they drag you under...
The moonlight's mine
And yours to chase -
Your star is rising,
Beyond your wonder...

[Chorus]

You're not alone for heaven sake
Your tears run so freely,
Your fears run so deeply down...
The pressure is breaking -
Quicksilver awaking now...
Can you feel it rise?
Can you see it rise?
Droplets of dreams
That you touched, disappear...
There's change in the weather,
And wind in your hair,
And Mercury's rising,
Mercury's rising
Rising...
Rising...
Rising...
Mercury's rising...

Eleven days,
A dozen nights,
A thousand tears...
And you are my shoulder.
From summer's haze, on morning light,
The sun is rising...
Just like I told you
